After a solid breakfast, it was time for skiing again. I felt the blisters straight away, but the pain wasn’t intolerable so I proceeded regardless. I took the trail from the hotel and I was aiming for the Andersborg cabin. At first it was easy – just follow the trail. But then at the highest…
I have Friday and Monday off so I can go to the mountains for a long weekend to ski (cross-country). One of my main goals for this holiday is to photograph Mittåkläppen covered in snow, so that’s where I headed first. As I got to Bruksvallarna, I was wondering if it it’s going to work, because…
Since it’s weekend, I went for a walk as usual. It’s been keeping warm so I didn’t need a cap, or thermal underwear, or winter boots, or camera… in fact, I didn’t even need the gloves. This is supposed to be January?! Not any January I have ever seen… we had better winter weather in…
Since the beautiful winter weather keeps, I thought it was time for a serious walk. So I took the shortest way to the camping area by the lake and crossed the lake and a narrow strip of forest to get to the big bog. On my way I noticed that they had just laid new…
Just saw the news. They got 1m of snow in Hudiksvall today. Hudiksvall is on the coast, just over 100km east from Los. When I lived in Ljusdal, it was my closest ”big” town (they have Åhlens). But really… 1 metre of snow?! What did we get here… all of 1cm? Well ok a bit…
Last day of the long weekend. I was out before sunrise, walked up Furuberget again. That’s 3.5 times in 3 days… other people normally take the lift up… Anyway, I observed that the snow has melted away from the trees on the high hills, for example the tall pines on the Eagle Mountain are now…
We are a having a great winter weekend here (long weekend – we had Friday off as well). A good amount of snow, frosty trees and 10-15 degrees below freezing. Perfect! I’ve been spending most of the daylight outdoors, sometimes shooting, sometimes skiing, sometimes just walking around and enjoying the conditions. Today I went out…
I went out right after sunrise. This the first time since the new snow that I got to see the scenery in daylight and I must say that I love it to bits. This is what I have been waiting for! I wouldn’t mind having a lot more snow, but this will do just fine…
This was the last cold day before a warm front would hit us, so I made sure I got some winter pictures in before the snow would be gone (again). I drove to Hamra National Park, it’s only 30 km from Los and it’s also the smallest national park in Sweden. The long trail around…
One thing that often comes to mind when viewing beginners’ landscape photographs is that they chose the wrong time to take the picture. It takes a while to learn what difference light makes and depending on the subject, there is a number of other factors playing in. Say for example, if you want to show…
